'River Songs' by NZ singer Anna Rugis is designed for intermediate schools and all level primaries. It features 9 songs, each with a short introductory script highlighting an ecological topic.
Rivers are the voice of the land. The songs the rivers sing show us how the land is feeling. Some of their songs ring and sparkle with good health while others sound a cry for help. The River Songs collection is a statement of solidarity with the forces that form and sustain the health and beauty of New Zealand rivers and all the creatures that live in and around them. When our children add their voices to the voices of the rivers we know without doubt that both river and human will benefit.
"...musicality, poetry & spirituality to burn."
- New Age Voice USA
"Rugis is a brilliant composer as well as a fine lyricist and singer with an enchanting voice."
- Women In Music
"Anna Rugis began to sing and it could only be described as mercurial, magical and many moons ancient. It's as if it had slipped from the earth and taken to air to fly around the walls on wings."
